Dulux Fire Wood / Warm Sycamore / 80YR 21/226

Dulux Fire Wood 80YR 21/226 is a medium-depth, earthy brown with a clear warm red-yellow cast. Its #9A7259 tone reads as softened clay brown rather than a heavy chocolate, giving it enough color to hold its own on a feature wall or painted cabinetry. In bright daylight, the warmer terracotta notes are more noticeable, while lower evening light brings out its grounded brown side. Use Fire Wood with chalky cream, warm beige, muted olive, or deep charcoal for contrast. It pairs particularly well with oak, walnut, aged brass, linen, and handmade ceramic finishes.
